Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

Calvin school is 2.3 miles directly south of his house. After school, he takes a bus 1.8 miles west of his school to the sport complex.

a) What is the length of a straight line between calvins house and the sports complex? Round to the nearest tenth.

b) Calvin takes piano lessons at a community music school located 3.7 miles directly north of the sports complex. What is the length of a straight line between Calvin's house and the music school? Round to the nearest tenth.

Solution:

a) Calvin school, his house and the sport complex form a right angled triangle. The hypotenuse of the right angled triangle is the length of the line between Calvin's house and the sport complex. Let the length of the line between Calvin's house and the sport complex be x.

Using Pythagoras law for right angled triangle, we get that:

x² = 2.3² + 1.8²

x² = 8.53

x = √8.53

x = 2.9 miles to the nearest tenth

b) This forms a right angled triangle with the hypotenuse = length of a straight line between Calvin's house and the music school. one side of the triangle = 1.8 miles and the other side = 3.7 - 2.3 = 1.4 miles.

Let x = length of a straight line between Calvin's house and the music school. Hence:

x² = 1.8² + 1.4²

x² = 5.2

x = √5.2

x = 2.3 miles to the nearest tenth

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Four

Start by trying to understand what f(x) means. First of all it is the same thing as y in the equation given in question 4. It is a shorthand that tells you that you put an x in wherever you see an x on the right.

More important, it tells you what to put in for x on the right.

f(z) would tell you to put z in for x anywhere there is an x on the right.

f(z)=2z+1. It is just a shorthand to tell you what to do on the right.

f(2) means put a 2 in for the x on the right. Read all of this carefully. You need to know it.

f(2) = 2(2) + 1

f(2) = 4 + 1

f(2) = 5

=================

Five

f(x) = -x - 5            The minus 4 is not going to change what you do.

f(-4) = -(-4) - 5        Wherever you see an x you put in a minus 4

f(-4) = 4 - 5

f(-4) = - 1

======================

Just so you know, consider a more complicated example

f(x) = 20x^3 + 7x^2 + 4x + 19

Where ever you see an x put in 2

f(2) = 20*(2^3) + 7*(2^2) + 4(2) + 19

f(2) = 20*8 + 7*4 + 4*2 + 19

f(2) = 160 + 28 + 8 + 19

f(2) = 215

Note x can be anything the question tells you it is.

f(5) means put a 5 in for every x.

Mary's team scores 18 points in the first half and 7 points in the second half. Mary scored a total of 5 points. What fraction o
jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

.2 <em>or </em>1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

First, calculate the total points by adding the two half's totals together.

7 + 18 = 25

Now, divide the number of points Mary scored by the total.

5 / 25 = 1/5

A is a 3 times 3 matrix with three pivot positions.
saw5 [17]

Answer:

The following are the answer:

In option a  "No".

In option b  "Yes".

Step-by-step explanation:

In choice a:

Ax = 0 has no nontrivial solution. A would be the three-pivot matrix, it may assume, that the function has no free variable, and only if the function has had at least one free factor are their nontrivial formulas for the equations of the form Ax=0.  

It implies that since A is a 3x3 matrix, has no free variables so that it has no non-trivial choices, and Ax = 0.

In choice b:

we assume that every potential has at least one solution that is Ax=b . If A does have a three-pivot matrix, It will be a pivot element for each row and column, and for each possible b∈ R³, Ax = b has at least one solution.
